Solution

The correct option is B Xylem.
  • Vascular plants have vascular tissue. It is a complex conducting tissue.
  • The two primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem.
  • Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves in the plants. Phloem transports food from leaves to other parts of the plants.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
